All The Smart Guys In England Are Foreigners And They Live In Emmett’s House

By Brian Michael Barbeito

Khris was all about the marmalade. He messed up now and then though. Khris was brilliant. He let Emmett read his thesis. Emmett was no slouch, but he couldn’t get it. Emmett walked into the kitchen and there was Khris by the oven. “Khris,” pleaded Emmett, “ What are you doing with all that marmalade?”

“ I am getting ready to boil it,” said Khris.

“ Why would you need to do that?”

“ You are supposed to boil jam, to get all the impurities out of it,” said Khris.

“ Well whatever the case,” replied Emmett, “ You can’t boil that jam in that casserole dish!”

“ Yes I can. It’s done all the time.”

Khris continued to get ready to boil the marmalade. Why he had so much marmalade, Emmett did not know. There were what would make up several large jars of marmalade in the biggest casserole dish Emmett had ever seen. When everything got heated up enough, the dish cracked and the marmalade exploded all over the room. There was marmalade on the ceiling and walls, on the refrigerator, all over the floor. What’s more, the broken casserole dish pieces made for a very unsafe situation. Emmett just shook his head. Khris was so smart, in a way, but now this marmalade mess. Emmett had but one real vice, and this was swearing. Emmett swore while he helped clean up the marmalade.

There were other problems with Khris. He was asked to put dishes in the dishwasher once. To Emmett’s dismay, Khris just stacked one dish upon the other in a big pile instead of putting them in the places that were made for them. Emmett just scratched his head. He swore that time too.

There was also the time that Khris had come back from studying for a time in The States, and he had not driven while there. He forgot how to drive a manual car. He was at the top of a steep hill, and there was some confusion. The car started down the hill when it was not supposed to. Khris tried to press the clutch instead of the break, and the car continued to fly down the hill, picking up speed. Emmett saw all this and ran after to help in any way he could. He jumped in the car at lightning speed, and pushed Khris aside, and managed to stop the car. Emmett swore plenty that time. In the end though, he remembered Khris as a good sort, and was glad that he had known him.
